Building Relationships and Affordable Housing

Launch Capital is a real estate company that focuses on buying existing naturally occurring affordable housing and stabilizing it. They prioritize providing stable housing for refugee populations and work with investors to raise funds for their projects. Their model emphasizes relationship-centered property management, with property managers and resident managers living on-site and providing additional services like ESL classes and community activities. Launch Capital has seen significant impact both at the individual level, helping families achieve stability and financial growth, and at the community level, bridging the gap between refugees and the broader community. Their work aims to counter the housing crisis by creating affordable options and challenging the NIMBY mindset that often opposes such developments. They're also looking to expand their model to more cities and are actively seeking partnerships and investments to make a larger impact.
